Openair parking areas located on roof decks and flat roofs require specialized, highstrength systems, as these surfaces are subjected to far greater mechanical and environmental stresses than typical roofs. The systems must combine robust waterproofing with reliable wear protection, offering excellent elasticity, controlled slip resistance and resistance to temperature variations, while maintaining integrity despite thermal movements and substrate micromovements.
They must also withstand intense abrasion, point loads, vehicular traffic and chemical exposure such as oils, fuels and salts. Selecting robust, certified waterproofing systems with high resistance to vehicular traffic is critical to ensure the longterm protection of the structure.
